See, while Price is aware that this is only the beginning of a long and eventful collaboration, he finds himself quite frustrated with the Director. He's so reserved, and rejected Price's help so unpolitely when he was just trying to be efficient! Yet he's such a special man, a man so revered that he was granted a miltiary program without being a military man himself, all thanks to his fundamental research. What is such kind of man made of? Price absolutely needs to find out, and if the man is so unfriendly that he keeps everything to himself that it's not Price's fault that he has to use alternative methods to get the information he wants, therefore it's also not his fault that he finds himself breaking in the Director's room later that night.
The man looks stone cold dead while sleeping, if it wasn't for the snoring Price would almost be concerned. His attention is immediately caught by the quirky clay mug, but he'll get to that later, he wants to see if there is something else.
He finds a holographic album: in many of the pictures there are a little girl and a blonde woman. The woman often wears a military uniform. It's the Director's wife, there are pictures of their wedding. The little girl looks vaguely familiar, but he cannot put his finger on who she resembles to, as Agent Carolina has spoken to him but hasn't revealed details about her family yet. She was chosen by the Director and Price could not question it, but soon he would find out. In the meantime he makes many mental notes as he scrolls through the pictures.
He decides on the spot he is going to make a secret file about the Director, for personal use. There he shall list all the details he noticed in this album plus all the Director's quirks and behaviours like his tendency to solve problems with yelling, his avid coffee consumption, the way he always puts his hand behind his back...Many things to take note of, and he looks forward to finding out more.
As he looks around some more he can't help but find that the Director laying there like that has something tempting to him. He'd love to stroke his hand and show him that he's there for him, but he knows it's risky. So he eyes the loosened up boot and removes it, the Director will think he kicked it off in his sleep.
A smirk appears on Price's face. He won't remove the other boot, but he will take off the sock. Socks get lost all the time, and even if the Director looks for it he's not going to think that someone took it. It makes for a nice contrast, because he will absolutely get mad to see his mug isn't in the room.
Price opens the door with the Director's keycard, and during the few seconds before the door closes automatically, he puts it onto the bedside table, on top of the papers that he so kindly carried for him, then leaves with the mug and the sock. He carefully places the mug next to the screen in the area where the Director was working, so that he will be relieved to see it but will sense that something is wrong without being able to explain it. It's going to be fun!
After that, he decides to reward himself by going to his own quarters, keeping the sock nearby and zealously start crafting this new exciting file...
